<p>When India was chasing 273 at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi on Wednesday night, Rohit Sharma gave it his best against Afghanistan. The Indian skipper needed his confidence back after scoring a duck in Chennai, and he got it with a scorching hundred in the capital. In addition to destroying Afghanistan with his 131 off 84 balls, he also broke other records with it.<img decoding=”async” class=”alignnone wp-image-230333″ src=”https://www.theindiaprint.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/theindiaprint.com-alia-bhatts-new-photo-shoot-sparks-hilarious-debate-download-2023-10-12t175915.906-1.jpg” alt=”theindiaprint.com alia bhatts new photo shoot sparks hilarious debate download 2023 10 12t175915.906 1″ width=”1164″ height=”652″ srcset=”https://www.theindiaprint.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/theindiaprint.com-alia-bhatts-new-photo-shoot-sparks-hilarious-debate-download-2023-10-12t175915.906-1.jpg 300w, https://www.theindiaprint.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/theindiaprint.com-alia-bhatts-new-photo-shoot-sparks-hilarious-debate-download-2023-10-12t175915.906-1-150×84.jpg 150w” sizes=”(max-width: 1164px) 100vw, 1164px” title=”The Batting Legend Compares the 'Risk-taker' to "India Need a Start from Their Skipper" With Sehwag is Rohit Sharma 3″></p>
<p>The famous Sachin Tendulakr’s 12-year record for the most hundreds in ODI World Cups was eclipsed by Rohit. The Indian captain now has seven World Cup hundreds to his credit and is the fourth Indian hitter to surpass 1,000 runs in tournament history.</p>
<p>Sunil Gavaskar, a former captain of India and legendary batsman, was in awe at Rohit Sharma’s impressive comeback. Speaking on Star Sports network, Gavaskar said that “risk-taker” Rohit had lost out on multiple opportunities to give the team a strong start by failing to score several hundreds.</p>
<p>He missed out on a lot of hundreds, but I’m glad he got a hundred. He is a risk-taker around him. Because of this, it sometimes occurs, as it did in the 1960s and 1970s, when he used half-centuries to jumpstart the squad. He does, however, want to continue doing so since it is good for the team. For instance, you get that (run rate of) 8 runs per over today, according to Gavaskar’s statement to Star Sports.</p>
<p>Your net run rate benefits from the strike rate. Who can predict what will happen? after an additional 5–6 games. For qualification, you may require those decimal points. He obviously lost out on a few hundred, but he still kept us all amused. And today was yet another noteworthy event. Some of the sixes he struck are just incredible, said Gavaskar.</p>
<p>‘Universe Boss’ Chris Gayle’s record for the most sixes in international cricket was broken by Rohit as he smacked five sixes when he was in the middle. With 556 maximums, the Indian captain tops the record, surpassing Gayle’s total of 553 sixes.</p>
<p>Every one of his centuries is enjoyable to see. Considering the ease with which he seems to be striking the ball as he strikes it along the ground. Only a select few hitters can pull off the front foot as he can. Viru was comparable to Virender Sehwag in the same way. Opening hitter strikes out hard and scores 60s, 70s, and 80s,” he said.</p>
<p>“And look, we cricket fans and bat enthusiasts want them to keep going. then when they don’t. Then, sometimes, we get quite agitated. similar to the kind of shot you made. Still, they get 60s, 70s, and 80s. However, we want them to continue and get a 100. He is pleased to have 100 after January. India wants its captain to get things going because that is what they need. The type of flying start that is permitted because it helps a team score large, said Gavaskar.</p>
